    Day 31 - Another government food parcel turned up this morning, despite me telling them I don't need them.

    Despite my best attempts at telling the 'government' I don't want or need these parcels, I fear another delivery on day 45; maybe they can knock on my door at 04:00 to deliver the next one.

    Just seeing End of day 1 isolation with Mrs and 18mth old boy.

    It got to 11am and was sure it should have been later.

    we have spent time in garden playing with football and got his slide out and swing.

    not sure how it will be after another 10 days

    Doesn’t really impact me too much. My work schedule sees me working more in the evening into the early hours which limits my social interaction anyway. Just means with less work coming from clients I have a bit more time to spend playing Half Life:Alyx when it comes out on Monday

    If you have ever wanted to try Football Manager it’s free until the 25th. Your isolation period will be over before you know it

    Heard a saying somewhere yesterday and I can't believe I hadn't heard it before...

    " The days are long but the years are short"

    What we are going through now needs a whole new mindset...

    there is talk of limiting time out exercising to just 15 mins, not sure how far that would get you on your bike ride

    Gardening today. First cut of the year. Feels like a normal Spring Sunday out in the fresh air away from the news.

    I will be up for work as usual in the morning. Not sure how long work wiĺl be able to continue to stay open, but working in finance, I am one of the so called key workers.

    So, no isolation for me yet

    Good luck with that, I can be on the canal in 5.:) That really is irrational, without excerise health problems will be exacerbated..............more health care needed.

    Tbh my life will stay pretty much the same, I'm a key worker and a public sector worker, so I'll be working as normal and get my salary as normal, cycle and walk in my free time. The only thing missing is pubs!

    Very fashionable! You could probably sell them on e-bay for a decent mark up! :cool: You just need to use the ‘happening term’ sliders to describe them! ;)

    Working from home and it’s gone extremely quiet so I’ve stuck this morning on, think I’ll be radio gaga by day 3. Plenty of supplies though and not a panic buy or ridiculously long queue in sight.

    Just had my text message from the NHS; I'm on the list.

    "Your name will go on the list"

    Do you know what the criteria are for being on the list?

    I'm asking for a friend .. well, my 90 year old widowed mother who has already announced that she doesn't want to be on the list 'cos according to her, it's for the old and the infirm!


    Edit - Just found the criteria here .. https://www.england.nhs.uk/coronavirus/wp-content/uploads/sites/52/2020/03/200321_GP-letter_Annex-2_FINAL_2.pdf
